The Baths of the Queen Joan are located on the promontory of Punta Capo in Sorrento, to be precise they are located on the coast of the Protected Marine Area of Punta Campanella.

Marina della Lobra - Spiaggia e Borgo Marinaro
The place has all the characteristics of the typical fishing village of southern Italy: houses perched on each other connected by stairs and walks, restaurants on the sea and a small marina. An exceptional and little known place, suggestive at dawn and sunset thanks to its glimpses, immersed among the lemon groves and shrubs typical of the Mediterranean scrub.

Punta Campanella
Punta Campanella is the extreme tip of the Sorrento peninsula. In front there is only the sea and the island of Capri. A place on the border between land and sea, which since ancient times has been covered with a sacred aura. Here Ulysses met the sirens and had a temple erected to the goddess Minerva who had protected his journey.

Blue Grotto
It is the most famous attraction of Capri. People from all over the world come to see it, even for a few minutes. At its entrance long queues form. It is the Blue Cave: 25 meters wide and 60 meters long with an entrance less than one meter high. To enter you must lie on the bottom of a rowing boat that slides through the small arch. Inside you find yourself floating in the dark, on a water so blue to seem transparent. Access to the site is subject to favorable weather and sea conditions.

Spiaggia di Marina Piccola
he bay of Marina Piccola is the right place to go if you are looking for a beach with views of the Faraglioni. Marina Piccola is located on the south side of the island, protected behind by a steep rock wall: for this it is always warm and poorly ventilated and the best place to take a swim!

Faraglioni
Think about Capri. The first image that comes to mind is surely that of the Faraglioni: three peaks of rock rising from the sea a few meters from the coast. Each Faraglione has a name: the first one united to the land is called Stella, the second, separated from the first by a stretch of sea, Faraglione di Mezzo and the third Faraglione di Fuori or Scopolo, that is cape or promontory on the sea.

Perfect day on the water
Perfect day on the water. Great communication ahead of time. Pickup and drop off from our hotel door which made it super easy. Captain Nino was safety oriented and fun - showed us beautiful sites along the way to Capri and was right there the minute we got back to the port! Do the chairlift in Anacapri!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! See you next time on board.

Best time so far as a family in Italy!
First the communication and captain, Nino, was fantastic! The company reached out to us the day before to confirm everything and since we were staying in Vico Equense they were able to pick us up at the doc here. Nino had great suggestions, very flexible, and personal! My kids are 12 and 13 and this was the most fun activity they have done thus far on our trip. Smiles all day!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! See you next time on board.

Capri boat tour from Sorrento
We had an amazing experience with Nino and Peppe on our trip to Capri. They explained everything very well and showed us all the best places. We started out by going to the Blue Grotto, and then they took us to lunch in Marina Piccola, which was to die for!! Then we got to hangout on the beach for a little bit before heading back to Sorrento. It was an absolutely wonderful experience and perfect for our honeymoon.
Response from the operator: Thank you! We are so glad to hear that our team went above and beyond your expectations, see you soon!

Capri by Sea
This was a great day. We were met at the Marina Di Piccolo in Sorrento. We hopped aboard and headed down the Amalfi coast towards Capri. The captain was very knowledgeable and friendly as he pointed out the various unique sights along the coast. We then proceeded to Capri. The captain stopped at all the popular attractions as we circled the island. He was able to maneuver the boat very close to the attractions so that we could take pictures. We chose not to disembark on Capri since it was New Year’s Day and most establishments were likely closed. Instead, the captain suggested an alternative restaurant on the mainland in a quaint fishing village which was reachable by boat. Lunch was wonderful and the atmosphere was authentic. Afterwards we hopped back aboard and headed to our home port. Another wonderful day on the Amalfi coast.
Response from the operator: thanks see you next time

Private Capri Escape: Full-Day Boat Tour from Sorrento: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Private Capri Escape: Full-Day Boat Tour from Sorrento cost?
+
Prices start at $944 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sorrento usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Capri Escape: Full-Day Boat Tour from Sorrento take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sorrento is not rushed.
Is Private Capri Escape: Full-Day Boat Tour from Sorrento worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 41 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Capri Escape: Full-Day Boat Tour from Sorrento?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Capri Escape: Full-Day Boat Tour from Sorrento suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Capri Escape: Full-Day Boat Tour from Sorrento?
+
Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sorrento can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sorrento and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Capri Escape: Full-Day Boat Tour from Sorrento start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sorrento within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sorrento?
+
On Outty we rank every Sorrento experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine tasting, Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Authentic Farm Tour with Pizza, Cheese, Wine & Limoncello Tasting. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sorrento?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sorrento?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
